LAKE PARK.
Utah'S Greas Bathing and Pleasure
Resort.

Utah'S Great Bathing and Pleasure
Resort.
The Executive Committee OF the Lake
Park Association, Messrs. Bancroft, Goss
and Bamberger, are making such i'm
provements at that famous resort as will
make it, during the coming summer,
much more attractive than it was
last season, although at that
time the attractions were sufficient
to draw larger crowds than ever
assembled in the Territory, except, per-
haps, at the Tabernacle during Confer
ence times. There is q large force of
men at work out there, widening and
lengthening the pier, building new bath
housec, erecting pavilion, set
ting out trees and making such
other improvements as have been
ordered by committee. The pier will be
extended to the length of twenty feet and
will be sixty feet in width One hundred
and twenty bath houses will be added to
the former number. Ten arbors are
being erected in the old bowery, each of
them of the capacity eff ten persons.
These are for for families and private
parties, who desire to occupy them
for the enjoyment Of ice cream, straw
berries, soda water, lemonade and
other light refreshments. The old pavil
ion will be entirely renovated and on
larged and a larger kitchen attached TO
the restaurant department. Over 1000
maple, box elder, poplar and other vari
cites Of trees are being planted, and the
grounds in the ''loop" are being prepared
orlawn tennis, croquet baseball and other
games. A band engaged from Denver
will furnish the instrumental music, and
there will be 4 concert in the pavilion
every day. Other varieties OF talent, be-
sides musical, will also be engaged at
times during the season. There
has been a large amount OF success
full dredging done, and the bottom
near the pier is nearly free from
mud. Lake Park, when the improve
ments are completed, will be the finest
bathing am pleasure resort west of the
river, and when the warm
weather sets in, will be thronged with
visitors, not only from this city, but from
all sections of the Union.

RAgNES AND MINING.
Tic Progress Of Claims ira the North
Country.

Tie Progress Of Claims ira the North
Country.
Three hundred and fifty feet of l, 050-
foot tunnel to develop the Empire and
Whippoorwill, near Helena, has been
completed. The progress has been slow,
even with machine drills not more than
seventy feet per month can be made.
The output Of the mine for the month of
March was $4,000, being less than usual
for the reason that the 15-stamp mill ran
during the month on second-class ore.
The grading for the new 40-stamp mill is
now about complete and the foundations
will be laid and the structure erected as
rapidly as possible. The mill will be al
most duplicate OF the new mill of the
Montana Company. Stopping on the EN-
pire is now done on the loot 200, 800 and
425 foot levels without much discrinlina-
ton, but development work is going for
ward throughout the mine to the lowest
level mentioned 1t is fine property;
how good it is will be appreciated by
mining men, who know that since its ar
ganization less than year ago, it has
paid 4 Is per cent. dividend on elOO, 900,
and has 4 considerable reserve fund from
earnings besides large capital reserve.

apy demonstration of the kind.
An attempt was made, but after several
bullets were sent whistling past the ears
of two or three of the railroad hands, it
was given up as bad job. The tramp
held the fort, and run the train into Og-
den. Here the railroaders, assisted by
three of the Ogden police force, tried
to enforce the arrest. The tramp
again stood pat, drew his pistol, and
sailed in. About twenty shots in all
were fired by the police and tramp before
shot from one of the railroad boys
struck and disabled the tramp's pistol.
At this point the crowd rushed to close
in on him, but it was not their turn quite
yet. The fighter had one more toy to
show the boys before he passed
out. A knife was drawn, and
last fierce attempt to resist the
officers made. This last resort, however,
did not evade them long. He was caught,
thrown down, and after all hands taking
a free kick, was lodged in the City Jail.
Further particulars will appear in our
Ogden department tomorrow.

J. H. Young, of the C. & N. w, went
north yesterday.
There is said to be probability of an
other passenger train being run over the
Central Pacific this month. The train
will be run between San Francisco and
Reno without doubt, and may be run on
through to Ogden. The travel is so
heavev now that the passenger trains are
run in two sections each way almost
daily.
A company OF engineers in the employ
of the Chicago & Northwestern Railway
Company have reached Eagle Rock.
They state that the road will undoubtedly
be completed to Eagle Rock some time
this year, and that its line from thence
will be through Wood River and Camas
Prairie to Boise, where it will connect
with the Oregon Pacific, which is expect
ed to be completed early next year If
the Northwestern main line does not run
up Croy Gulch to the Gold Belt, branch
will be built via Haley.

THE oATHs IN COURT.
a Big Difference of Opinion on the
Subject.

a Big Difference of Opinion on tae
Subject.
In examining jury for the Mammoth
Morris case in the Third District Court
this afternoon there were some questions
raised on the difference between the diff
ferent test oaths.
Mr.. Midgley, the painter, was asked to
take Judge Zane's oath, but said that he
would like to have time to consider the
matter.
W. G. Spence, clerk of the Mormon
Church office, was called and the "citi-
zen's oath" was presented to him. This
he declined to take. The oath prescribed
by the Utah Commission was then read,
and he said that he was willing to take
that.
He was then asked what difference
there was between the two, but not hav-
ing them before him he could not point
out the difference.
z. L. Williams, Esq, said that he
would show the difference, and this he
did, where the Commission oath says 81
will not aid or abet," etc., the other
oath puts it, 81 will not at any time
hereafter, within any Territory of the
United States, while said acts OF Con.
gress remain in force, in obedience toanv
alleged revelation" etc, etc.
Judge Zane's oath was then produced
and was still being discussed when our
report closed.
LATER-Judge Henderson finally said
that he didn't see the difference between
the two oaths, but he was not prepared
TO introduce new methods, and said fur
Their: 81 see Judge Zane has not used
this FORM" (referring to the citizens).
Arthur Brown said why not put in
little clause apply to Gentiles stating
that 81 will not at any time hereafter
under any circumstances commit adult
cry, no matter if the most handsome
woman gets into my bed with me?'
Don't you think, Judge, that some of
them THE Gentiles) would drop OFF,"
81 think they would" replied the
Judge.
Judge Henderson positively refused 10
use the "citizens' oath," and as Mr..
Spence wanted to think the other over,
ne was excused.

day at noon several unsuspecting SOL
diers handed over divers sums of money
to Sergeant McCargle, according, as they
thought, to orders from headquarters.
McC. then donned citizens clothes, and
took the underground. He had
been in the service for four
years and one month, during which
time he won the confidence of his fellow
soldiers, borrowed money and incurred
as much Indebtedness as possible. The
officers have not only searched the town
and neighborhood, but have circulated
descriptive notices throughout the sur
rounding country.

WAS 1T JEALOUSY
A Theory About the Late California
Murder.

The Sacramento Bee says: The latest
rumor affoat in this city regarding the
killing of Mrs. Billou, at St. John, Colusa
county, by the Chinaman, Hong Di, is
that the Celestial was madly infatuated
with daughter OF the dead woman. The
girl, OF course. scoffed at his pro-
testations of alteration, and when
the Celestial, it is said, learned that
the object of his unworthy affections
had become the promised wife of
young Weaver, his anger knew no
bounds. On the morning of the tragedy
the prospective husband and son-in-law
were at breakfast, the scene of happiness,
especially on the part of the young
couple, doubtless drove him frantic.
Wild with jealousy and rage he seized
his rifle, bounded into the room, killing
Mrs. Billou, shot Weaver in the shoulder
and attempted to kill the girl. This is
the story that has been told in Sacra-
mento, and it finds many believers, as it
is argued. the Chinaman must have had
some motive for the murder.

Chas. S. Wilkes appeared before the

prescribed by Congress.
The Commission this morning framed
the following reply to Mr.. Wilkes in an
swer to his wish to hear their opinion on
the matter:
OFFICE OF THE UTAH Commission,
SALT LAKE CRY, May 3, 1887.
ChdS. WILKES, Esq, Salt Lake CITY, Utah 1.
We think that the oath desired to be taken
by the persons you have referred to is in ex
cess of the legal requirement, yet, if those
persons wish to take the increased burden it
would at least seemingly impose, that, in
our opinion, is for you and them to decide.
By order of the Commission.

Unnecessary Misery.

Probably as much misery comes from
habitual constipation as from any de-
rangement of the functions of the body,
and it is difficult to cure, for the reason
that no one likes to take the medicines
usually prescribed. HAMBURG FIGS were
prepared to obviate this difficulty, and
they will be found pleasant to the taste

To-day being the day appointed for the
election OF municipal officers for the
ensuing year, no little interest was mani
tested by the citizens. Wagons, osten-
tatiously decorated with cards eXhorting
all to vote for so-and-so, could be seen
going and coming from the mines and
vicinity till sunset, bringing those desir-
GUS Of casting their vote.
The citizens generally were well be-
haved, and while considerable excite
ment prevailed, and many had too much
buck beer in their necks, nothing of
serious nature TRANSFERRED.
Circulars gotten up by the Mormon
"rag" were distributed throughout the
camp to the effect that Mr.. Frank
James had been partial in his former
administration as Justice of the Peace.
This was done with view to prejudice
the people against him which would have
a tendency, as they thought, to lower his
votes.
All who are acquainted with Mr.. James
know too well that he is an honest, up
right, conscientious man, one who under
stands his duty and tries to perform it so
that he may merit the appreciation of all.
Notwithstanding this defamation of
character, he was elected by large ma
jority, and his friends and all patriotic
citizens of the Park rejoice.
The returns of the election are as fol-
